Abstract

Human computer interaction is dealing with different branches of learning that involves the interaction of human with machines directly. For an effective interaction between the machines and humans a user friendly and interactive interface needed. Automatic Face Detection and Recognition proves as a solution for that. Face is a physiological characteristic that indicates what we have in the mind by analyzing the facial expressions such as screaming, happiness and so on. The various factors such as identity, gender, expression, age and pose can be efficiently analyzed by observing the information contained a face. It is very easy for humans to recognize faces because human beings are very good in recognizing process, but it seems to be challenging for machines in the field of computer vision. Therefore, many researchers contribute their interest and attention in this emerging field. In this paper our focus on analyzing the existing faces detection techniques and combining some compatible techniques to form a model with improved efficiency and better detection rate.
